Yep, I agree that this is the way to go. I checked on AIX 5.3,
this function is not declared in any of the /usr/include/*.h file.

This is indeed very weird. I don't see any of that on our end.
I follow the AIX status relatively closely - even if we don't run
the AIX testsuite nightly, we run the AdaCore one every second day.
The AIX port should be in good shape!  You might want to try AdaCore's
sources to see if it makes any difference (we might have forgotten to
contribute a couple of patches), but I don't think so.

This is what we call gdb-head at AdaCore, which include all of AdaCore's
changes while tracking the HEAD from the FSF tree.
